http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/c043a71fe5dc226873b31ded11c993b9.jpgWith Apple's highly anticipated iPhone 7 introduction likely just about four weeks away, we're starting to notice a discernible uptick in the number of leaked photos coming through the pipeline. Apple certainly likes to keep its unannounced products under wraps, but that naturally becomes more of a challenge the closer we get to launch day. As it stands now, it's increasingly starting to look like the iPhone 7 will be unveiled on either September 7 ahead of a September 16 launch. Earlier today, three images purporting to show Apple's upcoming iPhone 7 Plus models were uploaded to Weibo, the po…

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/84010d5891b6f663fbf6ca0e0ab0343f.jpg While the benefits are obvious to anyone who has ever had to pay a cable bill, cutting the cord can still be a daunting idea if you don't have the proper tools at your disposal. Of course, if you have a game plan in place and you've picked up the necessary gear to replace cable boxes in your home, the task instantly becomes far less daunting. In fact, with a box like the TiVo Roamio OTA 1 TB DVR, you'll wonder why it took you so long to sever ties with your cable company in the first place.

When Google announced it would roll out its high-speed internet service, Fiber, throughout the US, perhaps the search giant underestimated how long and how expensive the exercise would prove to be.

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/5122f7e165484d55df86c780c904da49.jpgGardening at home can be tricky. If you're growing things indoors, there's all sorts of pitfalls to consider: lighting, nutrients, space, the cops busting down your door. The last one is kinda hard to deal with, but a new product wants to try and take care of everything else for you. Grobo is a large cabinet that's meant to handle every aspect of growing virtually any kind of plant. The founders of the Canadian startup describe it as "Keurig for coffee," only this uses seeds instead of coffee pods. Also, the results take months not minutes.

A 60TB SSD is such glorious, beautiful overkill

http://androidforum.us/data/MetaMirrorCache/c11855db6ed912711f1be05d60c338e2.jpgNo one, not even the most dedicated sysadmin, can justify buying a 60TB SSD. That much data is better stored on a tape deck, or in a giant planet-sized supercomputer à la Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. But Seagate clearly disagrees, because it's gone ahead and built it anyway. Let's try and put 60TB into perspective for you. By my back-of-the-calculator math, that's enough for 85,000 TV episodes, 14,000 movies, or 80 years of regular-quality MP3 music. That is, scientifically speaking, quite a lot of music.

Binging House of Cards is all good, but American culture is well rooted in the notion of football and a can of Bud Light (shudder). Even big players like Apple have tried (and failed!) to put together a streaming TV package that includes sports, but now one European startup appears to have pulled it off. Kinda. DAZN is very much like Netflix, but for certain sports. For a flat fee of about $12 a month, users get access to on-demand and live-streaming soccer, NFL, NBA, ice hockey and rugby, to name a fe…

But rumors are suggesting the fully-loaded Galaxy Note 7, which does indeed have 6GB of RAM, will be on sale in China for over $900. A grand. For a phone. Nope. According to SamMobile, Samsung will be putting a version of the Note 7 on sale in China with 6GB of RAM.

At launch, the game would freeze and crash constantly, and even when the app did work, there was a good chance the servers would be offline. Thankfully, many of those problem have been resolved through updates, but like any online game, Pokemon Go is going to continue to run into occasional speed bumps going forward.
